The main aim of this research is to determine the best material for manufacturing of steering knuckle in order to reduce the weight using aluminum alloy and Metal Matrix Composite (MMC). To achieve this purpose, the Modal test has been performed to study vibrational behavior of steering knuckle. CAD Model has been prepared by using coordinate measuring machine (CMM). Finally, the Finite Element...

This paper analyzes the application feasibility of CMM(Capability Maturity Model for Software) in real estate business management, and builds the CMM of real estate enterprises, It includes five levels, which describes respectively the business management ability levels for real estate enterprises of different levels of maturity. Through the application of the model, it indicates that CMM can h...

The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) developed an integrated Capability Maturity Model (CMM), known as the FAA-iCMM, that integrates the Systems Engineering CMM, the Software Acquisition CMM and the CMM for Software. The FAA-iCMM was released in 1997 and is the first major integrated CMM in existence. Since 1997, it has been successfully guiding the systematic improvement of FAA-wide proce...

Knowledge management is used as underlying theory to develop a set of key process areas for a supplement to the CMM in small or medium sized enterprises (SME) that develop software. These processes involve a focus on managing knowledge capability rather than traditional project management. A longitudinal case study provides evidence that current practices have already established the feasibilit...

AcceleratedSAP is a methodology developed for cost-effective SAP R/3 installation. Numerous project managers have adopted AcceleratedSAP for SAP implementation in a range of industries around the world. The Capability Maturity Model (CMM) is, similarly, a software model that improves software processes in software organizations so that software projects run successfully and deliver quality prod...

We introduce the Coerced Markov Model (CMM) to model the relationship between the lexical sequence of a source language and the tag sequence of a target language, with the objective of constraining search in statistical transfer-based machine translation systems. CMMs differ from standard hidden Markov models in that state sequence assignments can take on values coerced from external sources. G...

There are a large number of software organizations that have been certified under ISO9000. Many of these now want to move to the Capability Maturity Model (CMM). This article discusses the possible gaps in the processes of an ISO organization with respect to the CMM, and how an organization can move from ISO to higher levels of the CMM. It is based on our experience of successfully transitionin...
